This is a little more than a "pack" and more like a "blaster." I figured on Election Night, what better way to serve it up than with a blaster box of 2008 Americana II?

I am not going to post all the cards, but will post a few of the "hits." In addition, I went to the Oracle of Bacon to see just how close these folks were to the "King of Six Degrees" himself. As it turns out, only ONE person could not be linked, and that's because he's a fighter not an actor...

The Six Degrees results are in:

Vicki Lawrence was in Elvis Is Alive! I Swear I Saw Him Eating Ding Dongs Outside the Piggly Wiggly's (1998) with Joyce Brothers was in Hero at Large (1980) with Kevin Bacon

Greg Grunberg was in Hollow Man (2000) with Kevin Bacon

David Prowse (I) was in Star Wars (1977) with Garrick Hagon was in Balto (1995) with Kevin Bacon

Richard Dreyfuss was in Always (1989) with John Goodman (I) was in Death Sentence (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Natalie Zea was in Lucid Days in Hell (1999) with Todd Stashwick was in The Air I Breathe (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Greg Evigan was in River's End (2007) with Clint Howard was in My Dog Skip (2000) with Kevin Bacon

Stephen Tobolowsky was in Murder in the First (1995) with Kevin Bacon

Rhonda Fleming was in The Nude Bomb (1980) with Vittorio Gassman was in Sleepers (1996) with Kevin Bacon

Kathie Lee Gifford was in The First Wives Club (1996) with Marcia Gay Harden was in Rails & Ties (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Gary Coleman (I) was in Dirty Work (1998) with John Goodman (I) was in Death Sentence (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Goldie Hawn was in The First Wives Club (1996) with Marcia Gay Harden was in Rails & Ties (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Gloria Stuart was in Land of Plenty (2004) with Wendell Pierce was in Sleepers (1996) with Kevin Bacon

Lisa Marie (I) was in Planet of the Apes (2001) with Evan Parke was in The Air I Breathe (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Francesco Quinn was in Hell Ride (2008) with Kanin J. Howell was in Death Sentence (2007) with Kevin Bacon

Edward Asner was in JFK (1991) with Kevin Bacon

Regis Philbin was in Dudley Do-Right (1999) with Brendan Fraser was in The Air I Breathe (2007) with Kevin Bacon

If some of the cards look or sound familiar, it's baecause back when I did a post on Americana I, nearly 50% of these same cards were in THAT box! I now have (gulp) THREE Vicki Lawrence cards... I think I am only missing an auto card and if there happens to be any on which she appears with someone else. That is just... not right...
